核心提示:有一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn),行善者比那些不慷慨、不寬容的人活得更長。


It's the lesson Scrooge learned the hard way - and now a study has revealed the moral behind Dickens' classic A Christmas Carol may be true after all.
這是斯克魯奇歷經(jīng)苦難才學(xué)到的東西,如今一項(xiàng)研究揭示,狄更斯的經(jīng)典作品《圣誕頌歌》背后的寓意也許是正確的。

New research has revealed the do-gooders amongst us live longer than the meaner, less charitable people.
新研究發(fā)現(xiàn),行善者比那些不慷慨、不寬容的人活得更長。

The figures also showed people who volunteer to help others have an increased lifespan than those who do it for personal satisfaction.
數(shù)據(jù)還顯示,那些主動幫助他人的人比那些為滿足自己而幫助他人的人壽命更長。

Scientists studied a random group of 10,317 college students from their graduation in 1957 until the present day.
科學(xué)家隨機(jī)抽取了10317名大學(xué)生作為研究對象,并跟蹤調(diào)查了他們從1957年畢業(yè)后到現(xiàn)在的情況。

In 2004, respondents reported whether they had volunteered within the past ten years and how regularly.
2004年,被調(diào)查者們報(bào)告了他們在過去十年內(nèi)是否曾主動幫助他人以及這樣做的頻繁程度。

Researchers found that four years later 4.3 percent of 2,384 non-volunteers were dead.
研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn),四年之后,那些不曾主動幫助他人的2384名被調(diào)查者中,有4.3%已經(jīng)去世。

A similar number - four percent - of volunteers with more self-orientated motives were also dead.
那些為了自身利益去主動幫助他人的人也有4%去世,人數(shù)和前者相近。

However, only 1.6 percent of those volunteers whose motivations were more focused on others were dead four years later.
然而,那些更多地為對方考慮的自愿助人者只有1.6%的人在四年后去世。

The study's lead author Dr Sara Konrath, of the University of Michigan, said: 'This could mean people who volunteer with other people as their main motivation may be buffered from potential stressors associated with volunteering, such as time constraints and lack of pay.
該研究的主要作者、密歇根大學(xué)的薩拉•康拉斯博士說:“這可能意味著那些以他人利益為主要出發(fā)點(diǎn)的助人者也許可以免受和自愿助人相關(guān)的潛在壓力的困擾,例如時(shí)間有限、薪酬不足。

'We recommend that people pay attention to their reasons for volunteering, and try to focus on how their behaviour can positively impact others.
“我們建議人們注意一下自己幫助他人的原因,并試著去關(guān)注自身行為怎樣能給他人帶來正面影響。

'It does not appear that volunteering for self-serving reasons does actual harm, and it can still do your community good.'
“這并不表示為了自身利益而幫助他人是有害的,這么做還是可以造福你的社區(qū)。”
